Energía, institucionalidad y desarrollo en América Latina recoge una serie de ensayos que revisan lo que ha implicado el sector energético para la región y adelantan propuestas de política pública de cara al futuro.
En un mundo volátil y desafiante, la transición global hacia un sistema energético que minimice las emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero constituye una de las principales herramientas para acotar el calentamiento global −cuyo avance constituye un serio riesgo a los ecosistemas, a la vida humana y a las actividades económicas que le dan sustento−.
Ahorrar dinero en la factura de la electricidad, mejorar el medio ambiente y ser autosuficientes hasta el punto de olvidar por completo a las compañías eléctricas puede parecer algo inalcanzable.
The first book to address the early development of the photovoltaic industry, and the pioneering researchers and companies in the sector Well before the end of this century, solar power will be the world's dominant power source.

Renewable Energy (RE) sources differ from conventional sources in that, generally they cannot be scheduled, they are much smaller than conventional power stations and are often connected to the electricity distribution system rather than the transmission system.
A whole host of motivations are driving the development of the renewables industry ranging from the desire to develop sustainable energy resources to the reduction of dangerous greenhouse gases that contribute to global warming.
The New Energy Paradigm provides an overview of the current energy policy debate, contextualized by the oil shock from 2000, and considers how the trends in international energy markets impact on security of supply and climate change.
